Christopher Nolan continues to bring poignant moments in history to the big screen. Oppenheimer follows the journey of developing the most powerful yet dangerous element that potentially can wipe out Earth and the human race — the fission of the atom.
Physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer works with a group of scientists during the infamous Manhattan Project, which leads to the development of the atomic bomb.
The cast includes Cillian Murphy as Oppenheimer, Emily Blunt as Katherine Oppenheimer, Robert Downy, Jr. as Lewis Strauss, Florence Pugh as Jean Tatlock and Matt Damon as Leslie Groves.
Written and directed by Stephen Gaghan, based on the story by Thomas Shepherd, Dolittle excites one of literature’s most enduring characters and stories in an expressive remake of the classic tale of the man who talks to animals, Dr. John Dolittle, played by Robert Downey Jr.
The movie is available on Prime and wherever DVDs and Blu-rays are sold.
After losing his wife seven years earlier, Dolittle becomes eccentric but a famed doctor and veterinarian of Queen Victoria’s England. He hermits himself away behind the high walls of Dolittle Manor with only his menagerie of exotic animals for company.
But when the young queen, played by Jessie Buckley, falls gravely ill, a reluctant Dolittle set sails on a grand adventure to a mythical island in search of a cure, recovering his wit and courage as he crosses old adversaries and discovers fascinating creatures.
The doctor is accompanied on his journey by a young, self-appointed apprentice, played by Harry Collett. Joining the doctor are a loud circle of animal friends, including an anxious gorilla, voiced by Rami Malek, an enthusiastic but bird-brained duck, spoken by Octavia Spencer, a bickering duo of a cynical ostrich, voiced by Kumail Nanjiani, and an upbeat polar bear, voiced by John Cena, and a headstrong parrot, voiced by Emma Thompson, who serves as Dolittle’s most esteemed advisor and confidante.
The movie also stars Antonio Banderas, Michael Sheen, Jim Broadbent. It features additional voice performances from Marion Cotillard, Frances de la Tour, Carmen Ejogo, Ralph Fiennes, Selena Gomez, Tom Holland, and Craig Robinson.
The next trailer offers more information about the movie, and it seems more entertaining.
Co-directed by Anthony Russo and Joe Russo, not much is released about the next Avenger movie called Avengers: Endgame. People are watching the trailer and speculating based on what they see.
The Blu-ray/DVD and streaming is available, so now is the time to see the movie again. If you are one of the few people who haven’t see the movie yet, now you can in the comfort of your home.
I am guessing that half of the Avengers who are thought to be destroyers are not, and there is a rescue attempt.
Christopher Markus and Stephan Feeley are the screenwriters. Both are familiar writing about Marvel heroes, and both were part of the screenwriting team of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
Some of the cast is seen in the trailer, and some are listed on IMDB. Those listed include Karen Gillan, Bradley Cooper, and Brie Larson.
Our superheroes are angst and looking to kick some super-intergalactic booty. They are bent on revenge for the deaths of their superhero buddies.
The featurette does say much about the movie but clicks on the press conference video at the end of the featurette. It will lead you to three more parts to the press conference. It’s great to hear what the actors have to say about being in this Marvel franchise.
It looks like Captain Marvel is going to save the day.
Directed by Jon Watts, I am not sure how to take the next Spider-man movie’s overall slant. It’s a little too goofy for me and seems nothing like the comic strips I used to read in the daily paper when I was a kid.
The movie has a great cast, so I am hoping for a better trailer soon. One that shows more of the story and a good reason to go to the theater and see another Spider-man remake.
Check out the interviews with the director and cast just after the two trailers.
